The swamp funk that The Beatles had been looking for on their own version of “Come Together” came naturally to Ike And Tina Turner. Indeed, the rock’n’roll music that had first made the fledgling Beatles want to be stars owes a great debt to Ike Turner, whose 1951 recording “Rocket 88” (credited to Jackie Brenston And The Delta Cats) is often cited...
Frank Sinatra famously introduced “Something” as his favorite Lennon/McCartney song, but it was actually written by George Harrison. After “Yesterday”, “Something” would become The Beatles’ most-covered song – a sign of just how far Harrison had come as a songwriter. The list of artists who have tackled it reads as a Who’s Who of popular music – El...
The 1978 movie Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band featured a stellar cast, headed up by Bee Gees and Peter Frampton, with George Martin as musical director and appearances from a broad spectrum of performers that included Frankie Howerd, Alice Cooperand Donald Pleasence. Taking the part of Maxwell Edison was comedian Steve Martin, whose mad-docto...
Another number taken from the soundtrack to the 1978 movie Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, Robin Gibb’s reading of “Oh! Darling” gives McCartney’s Abbey Road screamer a more sultry and sophisticated twist. Ahead of the movie’s release, Gibb commented – with some aplomb – “There is no such thing as The Beatles now. They don’t exist as a band a...
A New York singer-songwriter and comic-book author, Jeffrey Lewis is considered by many to be a leading light of the so-called “antifolk” movement. “The fact that no one knows what [antifolk] means, including me, makes it kind of mysterious and more interesting than saying that you’re a singer-songwriter or that you play indie rock,” Lewis has refl...
Recorded a matter of weeks after the release of Abbey Road, George Benson’s The Other Side Of Abbey Roadsaw the acclaimed jazz guitarist and singer tackle a number of songs from the album, including John Lennon’s intensely passionate plea to Yoko Ono, “I Want You (She’s So Heavy).” In Benson’s hands, the song takes an influence from the burgeoning ...
Having met in 1962, when both musicians were near the beginning of their careers, Joe Brown and George Harrison became firm friends over the years – so much so that Harrison was best man at Brown’s wedding, in 2000. A year after Harrison’s death, Brown was invited to close Concert For George, an all-star tribute to the former Beatle, which he did b...
It seems fitting to include a cover of John Lennon’s “Because” as played by a maestro from the world of classical music. After all, the song owes its origins to the classical world. As Lennon explained in 1980: “I was lying on the sofa in our house, listening to Yoko play Beethoven’s ‘Moonlight Sonata” on the piano. Suddenly I said, ‘Can you play t...
For his 1974 album London Underground, the celebrated American jazz flautist recorded a selection of rock numbers, including Eric Clapton’s “Layla”, “A Whiter Shade Of Pale” by Procol Harum, and, as the album’s closer, “You Never Give Me Your Money.” Mann’s version emphasizes the original’s underlying wistfulness and features guitar flourishes from...
“Sun King” wasn’t the first time the Southport indie-rockers covered a Beatles song. Their 1998 version of “Getting Better” was used on an ad for Philips Electronics, while they performed “Hey Bulldog” on a BBC Radio 2 tribute to John Lennon. Their version of “Sun King” was included on an album of Abbey Road covers calledAbbey Road Now!, which was ...

Named after the road on which they did most of their recording, Abbey Road was the Beatles' final album. Along with two of George Harrison’s finest songs, the highlight is the medley which...
